Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Starz’s Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 10 series finale last night, there is something bitter sweet about the end of one the most brilliant and entertaining shows on television. While the series may be over, the many adventures of Ash, Kelly, Pablo, and Brandy will always remain “groovy” for us fans. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “The Mettle of Man,” Ash has doubts about accepting his destiny, but receives a motivational speech from his loving daughter, Brandy. Meanwhile, Pablo goes into the rift to save Kelly and the military arrives, as evil spreads all over the world. My top 5 moments from the Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 10 series finale are:

5

“You taught me to believe in you and I do.”

In the beginning of the episode, we learn that Kandar the Destroyer has been unleashed on the world to test the “Mettle of Man.” While Pablo tries to explain that “it’s the final test Jefe,” Ash is having some doubts about his role in all of this. Brandy refuses to let Ash take a seat on the sidelines and I have to say that Brandy has transformed into quite the bad-ass at the end of the series, refusing to let anyone get in her way. After all, she is a Williams, just like Ash. Brandy motivates Ash and tells him, “I don’t know much about this evil dead crap…you’re the savior of humanity so get on your damn feet and own up to who you are. You taught me to believe in you and I do so please don’t let me down now.” Even though we have witnessed Brandy kicking some serious deadite ass, this speech to Ash is what truly makes her stand out and is the inspiration that Ash needs to go after Kandar. Well right after he gets “baked” of course. In a heart-warming gesture, Ash gives Brandy the necklace he has been carrying around with him since the beginning, passing on his legacy to her, which is beautiful and genuine. While Brandy tells him that they are in this together, Ash intends on protecting her no matter what. It looks like Ash finally got the hang of this fatherhood thing after all.

Pablo goes through the rift to save Kelly.

Pablo is still being shielded from evil, as they think he is one of them because he is “El Brujo Especial.” Ash is amused by this and comments that he is just like Kane the wrestler. Pablo realizes that since the rift is open, he can go in himself and be alright because of his new abilities. Ash trusts him and Pablo takes the plunge. He quickly jumps out, but is heartbroken when Kelly doesn’t wake up. After a few nail-biting moments, Kelly wakes up and Pablo kisses her passionately, causing fans everywhere to cheer. It’s about time you two! Kelly keeps her sense of humor alive when she sees her reflection and says, “I look like Keith Richards.” Whether she is ghostly pale or not, Kelly still looks fabulous and is ready to unleash her fury on the deadites. Welcome back to the land of the living Kelly!

3

“I’m not running from this one.”

After the Ghost Beaters begin fighting off evil with the military, they jump in a van to get to safety. Ash comes to the realization that this is the moment where he needs to say goodbye and go at it alone. He tells Kelly to be the leader now and says, “Pablo, you’re the Jefe now.” Brandy is begging him not to leave her but he reminds her, “Brandy, I’m doing this for you.” Ash finally accepts his destiny as “The Savior” and turns to face Kandar, leaving his friends and family behind to protect them.

2

“Ok big boy. Ashley J. Williams is coming for you!”

Ash quickly makes the decision to jump in one of the military tanks to take on Kandar and comments, “Just like Battle Zone the arcade game.” After all, how hard could it be to operate a tank? Ash gets creative with his attack and is locked and loaded with the Kandarian Dagger, using duct tape for good measure. While I’m not sure this could ever work, we cheer on Ash just the same, hoping that he will be able to take down evil and make it back to his friends. Ash fires away and takes Kandar down, but not before he lands on top of the tank with Ash still inside.

1

“It’s all gone…”

After the tank is crushed, Ash is dragged away and we see the blurred image of a Knights of Sumeria ring. Ash is put into some type of chamber and wakes up with white sprinkled through his hair and an upgraded hand, suggesting that he has been asleep for quite some time and is now in a futuristic world. Ash is greeted by some type of female android who refers to him as “The Savior” and tells him they need to get moving. After revealing Ash’s beloved car with some upgrades of its own, he begins asking about where Brandy is. The android explains that she’ll explain on the way and when she asks Ash how he feels, he gives fans a response we can all be satisfied with when he simply says, “Groovy.” While there are still a lot of questions unanswered about what happened to the world and how far into the future they are, one thing is for certain. Ash is still alive and kicking and is ready to take on evil once again. After all, Ash is a “Ghost Beater for life” and so are we. While the series ends open enough to perhaps take on another movie one day, fans can take comfort in knowing that Ash is still fighting the good fight with his humor intact.

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Starz’s Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 9 last night, we are getting extremely close to the finish line. Starz recently announced that this season will be the last for Ash vs Evil dead which means anything goes. Main characters can die, the world can collapse, and “boomstick” could be left behind. That being said, this episode is filled with shocking moments so who knows what we can expect in the series finale next week. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “Judgement Day,” Ash goes after Ruby to end this once and for all, Zoe suffers an unsightly end, and the Dark Ones arrive in Elk Grove. Meanwhile, Pablo’s powers advance and Brandy gets an incoming call from her dead mother. My top 5 moments from Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 9 are:

5

The Dark Ones arrive.

In the beginning of the episode, poor Zoe is tortured while Ruby cuts off her skin to make a new page for the Book of the Dead. Kaya gauges out her eyes and kills her once they get what they want, but they’ll get what they deserve later on. You know Karma and all that. Meanwhile, the Dark Ones have already arrived and come through the rift, so it looks like Ruby is out of time. The Dark Ones are cloaked shadowy figures, sort of resembling the “Dementors” from Harry Potter. They begin wreaking havoc on Elk Grove, spreading evil everywhere they go. While the town declares Martial Law, it’s unlikely that anyone will be able to stop this threat except for the prophesied one.

4

“I’m coming for you Ruby. Time to die.”

Ash gives Pablo and his daughter, Brandy a pep talk and then heads out to Ms. Prevett’s home to destroy Ruby once and for all. Even though we have heard this speech from Ash numerous times before, we are rooting for him all the same. Ash begins pounding beers on the ride over to psych himself up, not realizing that the town is currently under attack. When he comes face to face with Ruby, he demands that she release Kelly’s body so that he can save his friend. After all, “who the fuck is Kaya?” Ash demands that she evict her so that he can have the “no vacancy” sign removed for Kelly once she comes through the rift. It’s actually a spot on analogy if you think about it. Ash and Ruby face off and Ruby even destroys his beloved chainsaw right before his eyes, but no one is ready for what comes next.

3

“I’m Ashy Slashy’s daughter!”

Poor Brandy is left alone in Ash’s home but he makes sure to leave her with his trusty weapon, “boomstick.” She tries to thank him and ends up vomiting on him as a side effect from coming back from the dead, but Ash is OK with this. After all, he loves his daughter and is happy to have her back safe and sound. Once the Dark Ones arrive, evil is around pretty much every corner, putting Brandy in immediate danger. Brandy proves to be quite resourceful and tries to escape the evil. This is no easy task, however; as she begins to get incoming calls and unwanted voicemails from her dead mother. Brandy tells herself it is not real and stays strong. She cuts off part of her thumb and for a moment, sees herself cutting off her own hand to truly become Ash Williams’s daughter, but it is only a hallucination. With her hand intact, Brandy destroys the evil and reminds it who she is. Our little Brandy has grown up so fast and has embraced her true calling. Go Brandy!

2

“I don’t get a manual with being El Brujo Especial.”

Pablo begins getting more intense visions that literally blind him while they occur, as he can actually see into Ruby’s place through the eyes of the Necronomicon. He quickly realizes that poor Zoe is dead and that Ruby is trying to find the rift. Pablo gets down to the rift, but the Dark Ones have already come through it. They obtain the lost pages, but evil suddenly has no interest in Pablo. It’s like his new powers have cloaked him from them, allowing him to sneak through town undetected. Pablo explains to Ash that if the lost pages are reunited with the Necronomicon, all hell will break loose and there may be no stopping it. Pablo’s powers are advancing quickly, but will he be able to help Ash stop this threat?

1

“Poor Ruby. I’m melting. Fuck off bitch.”

After Ruby destroys Ash’s chainsaw, it seems like he may not be winning this battle. However, the Dark Ones interrupt before their fight can go any further. The Dark Ones eject Kaya from Kelly’s body and burn her alive. While this is happening, Ash grabs Kelly’s body and the book and sneaks out of there. Ash doesn’t shed any tears when Ruby is killed by the Dark Ones, but it’s clear that their powers are far greater than anything we have seen before. Either way, so long Ruby. You were a worthy opponent for sure. Ash heads to the hardware store to meet up with Brandy and Pablo. The Dark Ones obtain the book and connect it with the lost pages and open up the ground. An overwhelmingly large monster begins to surface and it looks like the final battle has finally come. Who will win the battle? Will the Ghost Beaters be able to save Kelly? Who will survive? Stay tuned for the series finale next week!

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own theories and thoughts on Ash vs Evil Dead in the comments section below. Happy viewing!

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Starz’s Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 8 last night, I felt a familiar shudder, bringing back old nightmares from the 2009 film “Drag Me to Hell,” which happens to be directed by the wonderful, Sam Raimi. I wonder if he was on the same page here too because I was just as equally frightened by the demon in the rift, refusing to let any soul escape unclaimed. Too bad Ash is not playing by its rules. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “Rifting Apart,” Ash and Pablo work together to open the rift, Brandy runs into an old friend, and Kaya brings Ruby something or someone that can potentially change their destiny. My top 5 moments from Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 8 are:

5

“Just like old times.”

Ash refuses to sit around and feel sorry for himself after his daughter is stabbed in front of him. Pablo and him decide to work together to make things right. Ash lets Pablo know that “to save those two I would submit to a prostate exam,” which proves he means business. After all, he was just reunited with his daughter and Kelly is like family as well. Pablo and Ash steal Brandy’s body from the coroner, as they need to make sure she is intact when her spirit comes back through the rift. Only, perhaps they should have checked the body bag next to her as well. When they get to the cellar, Pablo and Ash look at each other, expecting the other one to have a plan. After all, Pablo is “Cuervo Especial,” according to Ash. After politely reminding him that he is “El Brujo Especial,” Pablo thinks that Ash will need to stab himself with the Kandarian dagger in order to get to Brandy and Kelly. Seems like it makes sense, but Ash can’t do it. The two decide to work together to stab Ash on the count of 3, only Ash throws in 2 and a half, which throws off the count. “Was that 3?” Ash wakes up in the rift and is off to find Brandy, depending on Pablo to be there to open the rift once they are ready.

4

Kaya brings Ruby a present.

Even though we don’t see Ruby for most of the episode, we know that she is off plotting somewhere. Kaya decides to take matters into her own hands and captures Zoe, one of the Knights of Sumeria. When Ruby discovers that she can speak Latin, she is more than pleased, as she realizes that Zoe may be the key to their victory. She ominously tells her that “you’re going to help us re-write our destiny.” Of course that only leaves us with more questions, but we will need to stay tuned to find out.

3

Pablo vs a deadite.

After one of the deceased high school students wakes up in the body bag next to Brandy’s, she is not about to let an opportunity go by without attacking Pablo. Pablo needs to be at the rift to help open it for Ash, but gets distracted when he has to defend himself in the hardware store. After strategically using his surroundings to his advantage, Pablo is able to defeat the deadite who was mocking his new title. In victory, he reminds her and everyone who is watching that “It’s Brujo Especial…bitch!”

2

“Save Kelly and your daughter Ash Williams.”

Brandy is frightened when she wakes up in the rift and is running from the beyond creepy demon. After witnessing one of her classmates dragged beneath the surface, she is rescued by a familiar face. Dalton shows up and the two run toward the abandoned “Cinema,” where they meet up with Kelly. While they are unsure about what to do next, they are not going to go down without a fight. After Ash arrives, the mission is to get to the opening of the rift, but this will not be so easy. Dalton is aware of the stakes and distracts the demon so that Ash can get Kelly and Brandy to their destination. Dalton tells Ash that he only asks that he tell Ruby that he’ll be waiting for her in hell. He passionately kisses Kelly and rushes off to carry out his mission. After successfully distracting the monster, Dalton sacrifices himself and is brutally dragged to hell, but his good deed gave Ash the time he needed to turn his “idea of a plan” into an actual plan.

1

“Ghost beaters never leave a man behind.”

Ash explains that he is not about to let evil mess with his family. After Dalton’s sacrifice, Ash, Brandy, and Kelly take cover in Ash’s car. Kelly explains that nothing works in the rift, but Ash is able to get “baby” started. After all, “Evil is not the boss of us. Buckle up!” The other souls stuck in the rift are more than pleased to see Ash run over the demon, as the three head to their destination. Pablo is able to open the rift in the nick of time, but only Brandy and Ash can go through. Something is preventing Kelly from passing through, which we know is Kaya occupying her body. The rift closes, but Ash refuses to leave her behind. At least Brandy and Ash are alive and well, but the threat is not even close to being over.

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and comments on Ash vs Evil Deadbelow. Happy viewing!

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Starz’s Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 7 last night, I’m wondering why the Elk Grove police department has not instated some type of curfew yet. After all, two local people are dead and a lot of weird things continue to happen, but I guess the best thing for everyone to do is to gather all in one place at the school dance. Seriously I don’t know what this town would do without Ashy Slashy. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “Twist and Shout,” Brandy puts on her sequins and heads to the school dance with some chaperones, Pablo sees an unexpected guest in the rift, and Ruby tries to steal the show. My top 5 moments from Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 7 are:

5

“I’m not sure this is the time to be playing Barbie dress up.”

And you know what…Ash has got a valid point. Not to say that I want to take away Brandy’s chance to shine on the dance floor, especially since she is wearing her mother’s favorite dress, but it seems like this is just bringing evil exactly what it wants. Brandy explains that this is her chance to lure Ms. Prevett out in the open and to finally see her for what she truly is. Ash accepts but is clearly hesitant about this plan, explaining that “from now on you’re rubber and we’re glue.” After all, “that’s what super cool dads do right?”

4

Ruby takes her plan to the next level.

Ruby’s new and improved demon Ash is born or hatched? Not sure which is really correct, but either way this identical version of Ash calls her “mother.” Ruby explains that his role is to make Brandy truly believe he is her father. This includes cutting off his own arm so that all of the details are just right. Talk about commitment. Ruby tells Brandy that her father, Ash is a demon and tries to get her to turn on him. If Brandy kills her own father, Ruby’s heir will become the true prophesied one and then she will be able to pretty much bring all hell to earth…literally.

3

“The real Kelly and I did kiss and it was freakin awesome!”

While Pablo is still in the cellar at the hardware store, he hears a voice calling his name through the rift. Pablo is shocked to see Kelly trapped inside and she tries to explain that she must be dead. Pablo is clearly heart-broken by this news but recognizes that Kelly’s soul is in immediate danger and knows that it is his responsibility to do something to help her. When Pablo arrives at the school dance, he is even more confused to see Kelly there alive and well. Only, he begins to see through this impossibility and tests her by claiming they never shared a kiss. When Kaya fails the test miserably, Pablo lets her know that the kiss they shared was “freakin awesome” and the two begin attacking each other. Pablo cannot kill the vessel and escapes in just the nick of time, but it’s clear these two are not done just yet.

2

“There’s a very handsome but demented version of me running around here.”

Ash is shocked when he sees the demon version of himself running around the school hallway, leaving a pile of messy dead bodies behind him. It is clear that Ash is being framed for this, but he is not about to let Ruby’s plan be a success. Ash says, “I’m going to save my daughter.” When he comes face to face with Brandy, she is beyond angry and waves the dagger around to show that she is not messing around. Ash tries to explain that “it wasn’t me…it was the other me,” which isn’t as convincing as it sounds. Ash fights off the demon version of him, explaining that “Ruby went to Kandarian Kinkos and this asshole popped out.” After destroying the demon, he looks to Brandy, hoping that she will believe him.

1

“You were right.”

Brandy has flashes about her recent memories with her father and she cannot end his life, ruining Ruby’s plan. After the demon Ash is eliminated, Brandy sees Ruby for what she truly is and says, “you were right.” Ruby’s anger comes screeching to the surface and she throws the Kandarian dagger at Ash, only Brandy jumps in front of it to save him. Brandy dies in Ash’s arms, breaking his heart completely and it seems like all hope is lost. Or is it? Brandy wakes up in the rift and sees the same monster that seemed to be after Kelly. After watching the preview from next week, it appears that Ash and Pablo are ready to go into the rift to save them. While it seems like the first step is to save their souls, is it possible that Brandy and Kelly can be brought back to life? I’m hoping so because it seems like our favorite characters are dropping like flies. Stay tuned to find out!

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Starz’s Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 6 last night, I think it’s important that you never judge a book from its cover. That is unless we are talking about “The Book of the Dead,” which contains the most unimaginable evil, including evil sorceresses who should really just stay put. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “Tales From the Rift,” Kelly sees her mission through and brings the fight to Ruby, refusing to give up until she destroys her once and for all. Meanwhile, Ash is visited by the Knights of Sumeria, Pablo begins tapping into his powers as “El Brujo Especial,” and the rift opens, which proves to be extremely dangerous. My top 5 moments from Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 6 are:

5

“Like daughter, like Dad.”

After last week’s episode, Brandy makes the brave decision to trust her heart and her father in the process. Brandy is surprisingly handling everything thrown her way pretty well so far and continues to grow closer to her dad, Ash. She even makes him breakfast, which consists of actually toasting a pop tart, but Ash is beyond impressed. Brandy is still not able to truly believe that Ms. Prevett, otherwise known as Ruby, is evil, however. Ash continues to try and make her see it, but it looks like she will need to witness the Queen of Hell in action in order to fully understand it. Either way, it’s good to see Brandy and Ash finally growing closer and bonding.

4

The Knights of Sumeria show up on Ash’s doorstep.

A group of the Knights of Sumeria shows up when they don’t hear back from Dalton. They claim they can stop evil for good, which seems promising. Ash is skeptical of this but is more than willing to give it a shot, especially since he has a daughter to protect. They head off to the hardware store to find the body of Gary, who left them clues on the wall in Sumerian. They believe that Gary had figured out a way to open the rift to the Netherworld and believe that could be the key to triggering the final battle.

3

“I think these guys flunked Sumerian 101.”

After determining that opening the rift could be the key to stopping evil, the group of Knights is determined to figure this out. However, they are having a little bit of trouble reading the Sumerian on the wall. When Pablo arrives at the store, he can surprisingly decode the text and opens the rift as a result. The rift proves to be quite dangerous as one of the Knights goes through and returns as a deadite. Ash is able to stop the threat, but it’s important that they figure out a way to close the rift in the meantime before anything else happens.

2

“I got a bad feeling about this.”

After Pablo became “El Brujo Especial,” his powers are now surfacing, surprising him and those around him. He gets a sort of vision and realizes that Ash is in trouble at the hardware store. After he arrives, his powers allow him to translate the Sumerian and open the rift, which the Knights of Sumeria explained was a task that was not so easily done. After Ash manages to destroy the deadite, he tells Pablo that he needs to figure out a way to close the rift for good. While Pablo’s abilities seem to be quite powerful, he will need to get a handle on them very quickly so that he can help Ash with the fight against evil.

1

“Don’t start a fight you can’t finish.”

Kelly makes good on her promise to stop Ruby and attacks her in her home. She shoots her over and over, but Ruby tries to playfully remind her that she’s immortal. Kelly reveals that she has the Kandarian Dagger and puts her best effort forward to try and stop Ruby once and for all. She warns her that, “It’s Gladiator time, bitch,” and she means business. Kelly’s fight against Ruby is commendable. Even though she is mortal, she packs quite the punch and refuses to let Ruby escape. While fans everywhere are rooting for Kelly, it seems unlikely that she will be able to finish the job. Ruby turns the tables on her and uses the Kandarian Dagger to stab Kelly. As her life pours out of her, Ruby tells her, “I hated you least of all Kelly.” While characters don’t typically last too long on Ash vs Evil Dead, Kelly Maxwell has touched us all and is an irreplaceable member of the Ghost Beaters. The important thing to remember is that dead doesn’t stay dead for very long on this show. Ruby conveniently uses Kelly’s body as a vessel and allows her sorceress friend, Kaya to settle in there, freeing her from “The Book of the Dead.” When Kaya sees Ash later on, she delivers him the dagger, continuing to pretend to be Kelly in the meantime. While it breaks my heart to see Kelly’s mortal life over, I’m hoping that somehow Pablo’s new powers can bring her back from the dead and swap her soul with Kaya’s. While it may seem far-fetched, the show desperately needs Kelly’s kick-ass attitude and commitment to bringing down evil. The idea of Kelly being gone forever is heart-breaking. My fingers are crossed that there is some kind of loop hole to help bring her back. However, in the meantime, now that we know that Kaya is free, what is she capable of? Will she and Ruby become an unstoppable force? Stay tuned to find out!

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Starz’s Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 5 last night, I think it’s sometimes necessary to find your destiny by closing your eyes and trusting your instincts. Although this decision seems pretty important when it involves ensuring you choose good over evil with no do-overs. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “Baby Proof,” Kelly and Brandy continue to get attacked by demon Pablo, which causes Pablo’s spirit to enter into another realm. Meanwhile, Ash makes the connection that the evil baby is his son and tries to give him a time out that ends in one of them being stuffed into a trunk. My top 5 moments from Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 5 are:

5

“Don’t make me get my leg waxed.”

Kelly and Brandy are still under attack from demon Pablo and Kelly quickly learns that the miniature Pablo torturing her wound is connected to the demon Pablo. She strategically uses fire to severely hurt Pablo and screams out “hot tamale!” While it seems like this can hold him off temporarily, Brandy takes matters into her own hands when she stabs Pablo to Kelly’s horror. While Pablo does not die, Kelly does not want to face a world without him. At the end of the episode, Kelly says that she is “done being fucked with,” and decides to go after Ruby herself. While Kelly is not one to be messed with, is she any match for Ruby?

4

“You keep your hands off of my boomstick.”

In case you are not familiar, the “boomstick” is Ash’s shotgun which he has used in Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, and Army of Darkness. It rarely leaves Ash’s side and when Heidi attempts to use it to attack the demon baby, Ash has to put her in check. She clearly does not understand the history and sentimental value of this weapon, but we sure do!

3

Pablo becomes “El Brujo Especial.”

After Brandy stabs Pablo, Pablo’s spirit wakes up in a void between realms and he comes face to face with the naked lady who we now know is named Maritza, along with his dead uncle. Pablo has brought the Kandarian dagger and his uncle explains that he can now become “El Brujo Especial,” which Pablo innocently confuses with the name of a beer. The task is not an easy one, however; as Pablo must choose between darkness and light. Pablo trusts his instincts and says he’s got this and successfully chooses the right path. When he wakes up, Kelly is so happy to see him and kisses him, which leads to a very interesting reaction on Pablo’s part, “where’s Ash?” Pablo has embraced his new destiny and knows that he needs to help Ash with his fight against evil. It’s great to have Pablo back, but what powers and responsibilities come along with being “El Brujo Especial?” We’ll have to stay tuned to find out, but perhaps Ruby is not the most powerful one of all anymore.

2

“Here I come!”

After seeing that the baby demon has a miniature chainsaw arm, Ash quickly puts two and two together and realizes that this must be his son. “That’s a little me!” While the baby demon has got the smiling and giggling down pat, his idea of fun and games is a little bit more than Ash can handle. Each time the baby yells out “Here I come,” a duck toy with a beyond creepy laugh almost surrounds them. As a side note, I’m still having nightmares about this duck. In a panic, Heidi destroys the ducky toy which was a big mistake, causing her to lose her life and her head…not sure where that went. The baby demon takes things to the next level by playing a game of hide and seek like no other, as he literally crawls into the body of dead Heidi using different body orifices, which will have your skin crawling. Ash tries to tell him that he is “way too young to be going up there” but the baby demon refuses to listen, leaving Ash with only one choice: to utilize a bowling ball to plug up one orifice to trap “Tiny Tim” there until he can get to the bottom of this.

1

Brandy makes the right decision.

After surviving the attack from demon Pablo, Brandy is still not sure what to believe. Ash and Ruby both show up trying to get her to come with them and even after Ash reveals that he has the baby demon, which now looks like an ordinary baby, locked up in his trunk, she makes the right call. Brandy trusts her gut and goes with Ash. Ash is more than pleased and says, “This is the first time you ever called me Dad,” which at least gives him hope and a future with one of his children. Now that Brandy has chosen her father over Ruby, will she be in even more danger? While it seems likely, it looks like Ash is building up quite the miniature army against Ruby, but will it be enough to stop her for good?

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and comments on Ash vs Evil Dead below. Happy viewing!

Happy Monday TV fans! After watching Starz’s Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 4 last night, I think it’s about time that Brandy bonded with someone other than Ash, her dead grandpa, or the queen of hell. After all, this poor girl needs a break. While Kelly is an excellent choice for this, it’s clear that they will not be braiding each other’s hair anytime soon. Rather, they will need to team up to keep the forces of evil from ripping them to shreds. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch the latest episode yet. In last night’s episode, “Unfinished Business,” Ash’s dad returns from the dead…again, but this time there are some good intentions behind it. Meanwhile, Kelly and Brandy get attacked by a demon Pablo, Ruby learns that the Knights of Sumeria have surfaced again, and Ash finds out about the lost pages from “The Book of the Dead” before stumbling upon an unexpected bundle of…well maybe not joy. My top 5 moments from Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 episode 4 are:

5

Ash’s dad is back…again.

After using his chainsaw to rip his already dead dad to pieces in front of poor Brandy, Ash’s dad returns again, but this time as a ghost. Ash is more tolerable this time since the ghost is not influenced by Ruby and tells his dad “it’s nice to see you even though I’m looking through you.” Ash’s dad always wanted to be a ghost and it looks like his dream has finally come true. He reveals that he has returned to show Ash something important and proceeds to take him on a journey to his past memories. Ash seems confused at first and his dad comically asks, “haven’t you seen It’s a Wonderful Life?” While the memory reveals that his dad had the best intentions to protect Ash from harm, it shows him something even more important: a Knight of Sumeria who possessed the lost pages of “The Book of the Dead,” which could be the key to Ash destroying all evil.

4

Ruby tries to get Dalton to talk.

Ruby is not pleased to learn that the Knights of Sumeria have re-surfaced and immediately recognizes the threat that they could bring. She tracks down Dalton who is a deadite now and temporarily pushes away the evil so that she can get information from him. Ruby demands to know where the rift is that contains the lost pages, but Dalton is not about to betray his calling or his friends. He lets her know that they have the Kandarian dagger and will use it against her, right before blowing off his own head in a valiant, but really gruesome way to protect his friends. Farewell new guy.

3

“If you’re a deadite I’m in no fucking mood.”

Kelly proves once again why she is so bad-ass and amazing when she comes across Brandy, who is in desperate need of some female guidance. After Brandy begins to whine about everything that has happened, Kelly cuts her off and says “hold up Daria.” Kelly provides Brandy with a much needed reality check and tries to set her straight on Ash and Ruby. While Kelly is a little rough around the edges at first, she does confide in Brandy about her own loss and tries to help her through it. Unfortunately their female bonding is cut short when a demon Pablo jumps on the truck to attack them. What’s the perfect background music for this violent attack? You guessed it…Air Supply’s “All Out Of Love,” which really sets the mood for some serious ass-kicking. Brandy and Kelly lock themselves up in Ash’s trailer, but Pablo continues to try and get in to retrieve the Kandarian dagger. Pablo will stop at nothing to get in, which includes trying to wedge his way through Kelly’s open gash on her leg. Talk about thinking outside of the box.

Ash learns about the lost pages from “The Book of the Dead.”

After re-visiting the past with his ghost dad, Ash decides that they need to return to the hardware cellar in present time to see if the lost pages are still there. They discover a corpse that has been down there for way too long surrounded by empty cans of spam. Ash’s ghost dad seems displeased by this, but Ash tries to remind him that the Knight of Sumeria was literally trying to survive since his dad locked him in a basement. Ash comes across some type of hidden portal or rift in the wall and even sees Brandy’s friend Rachel. While Ash desperately tries to put the pieces together, he gets attacked through the rift and has to put his chainsaw to work. Ash’s dad has served his purpose and somewhat attempts to have a heart-to-heart moment with his son when he tells him that he will be a good father. However, this moment is short-lived when Ash questions it and he admits “well not really.” Either way, it appears that his dad has proven to be quite helpful, revealing the lost pages to Ash that could ultimately save the day.

Ash comes face to face with his demon offspring.

Ash tries to bring the fight right to Ruby and is surprised to find a woman chained up singing a lullaby in overwhelming fear. Ash comes face to face with his demon offspring, although he doesn’t realize this just yet. The woman begins to freak out and Ash tries to calm her down by telling her that he’s just sucking his thumb. He quickly realizes that he is sucking someone else’s thumb and says, “ok that’s a choking hazard.” Ash tries to get the woman out of there and tells her that he’s dealt with kids like this before just as the demon baby opens his mouth full of razor sharp teeth and the lights go out. Even Ash is out of ideas here when he asks “what’s Norway for up shit creek?” Will Ash be able to escape unharmed? Is there still hope for Pablo? Stay tuned for some more Ashy Slashy fun!
